Hollow Chest

Rushing winds of confusion

blast their way around me

The rush of shattered colors combine

and whirl and whiz around me

the chatter of chaos fills in around me

the broken shards and the heavy noise close in on me.

making thick walls of unbearable pain.

Falling to my knees and crying out in undying shame.

crying tears of tenderness.

Suddenly a bullet expodes into this cyclone of rage.

Silence reaches my mind.

the psychotic rage stops in its path

and falls to the ground in an unvoiced way,

splintering around my motionless body.

i stare as the hushed air flows into my mind.

releasing emotion

releasing thought

releasing the glint of wonder from my eyes.

the sudden feeling of being lightly carried into the

 vacant space around me.

The Silence Over powers my spot of reason.

creating images of stillness.

frozen in the sacred moments of time.

meaninglessness feelings encase my body

compressing my hollow chest

ruthlessly, cracks of anguish tear apart my skin.

ripping my hollow chest open

to show the world how hollow i really am.
